Chapter 789: "Farewell My Concubine" and the Cannes Film Festival
Once the song "When Love Is a Past" was uploaded, it immediately topped the charts on all major music platforms.
This song is the theme song of the movie "Farewell My Concubine".
The lyrics and music were composed by Li Zongsheng.
It is mainly popular on earth in two versions.
One is naturally the singing version of my brother Leslie Cheung. The other is the duet version of Li Zongsheng and Lin Yilian.
The latter were a couple, but they later divorced, and paired with this song title, it is quite emotional.
Nowadays, many Blue Star listeners are a little confused about the lyrics when listening to Luo Mo's new song.
“Some of the lyrics don’t feel like they should be sung by a male voice.”
"Look at this lyric: [Don't miss the years, I have all kinds of unintentional tenderness.]"
This makes everyone think that this song should probably be sung by a female singer, or a male and female duet.
However, as a creator, Luo Mo definitely knows what he is writing better than anyone else.
So, does the weird feeling in the lyrics have a deeper meaning?
……..
……..
Judging from the current situation, "Farewell My Concubine" is scheduled to be released in the summer.
Luo Mo plans to release the movie on July 1st.
The preliminary publicity work is proceeding in an orderly manner.
In addition, he also wrote the script for "The Departed" together with the team.
This script can be said to be completely Hollywood-like while retaining part of the essence of "Infernal Affairs".
As mentioned before, the most classic rooftop scene in "Infernal Affairs" was originally a fight between Andy Lau and Tony Leung on the rooftop, but later I felt that this was not good and changed it into a classic scene.
But these introverted and profound things don't please Laiwu.
Therefore, in "The Departed", which won multiple Oscars, in the final rooftop scene, the two protagonists beat each other black and blue, and in just a few minutes of the scene, at least one of the two characters said "
f**k], this curse word was said at least dozens of times.
This made Luo Mo remember "The Departed" after watching it on Earth.
Compared with "Infernal Affairs", "The Departed" is more open-minded in many aspects.
This is caused by cultural differences.
As for him personally, he naturally prefers "Infernal Affairs".
But no matter what, the Hollywood localization of "The Departed" can be considered very successful.
I can only say that everyone has their own preferences for radish and green vegetables.
Director Mark and the company preparing "The Departed" were shocked when they received the script.
In their eyes, Luo Mo is simply a fucking genius!
After the script was adapted, there was no sense of dissonance and it felt like it was written by a Hollywood screenwriter.
The plots of the two movies are similar but also different.
He is now full of confidence in the project "The Departed"!
Director Mark even thinks that if this movie is well made, it will definitely have a chance to win an award!
We don’t know yet, but the matter of the award has already caused a stir in China.
………
……..
Three days ago, Saturday.
Luo Mo took the crew of "Infernal Affairs" and "The Wandering Earth" to attend the Golden Tripod Award Ceremony.
In this award ceremony, he can be said to be the biggest winner in the audience.
"The Wandering Earth" won all the visual effects awards and was nominated for the best film of the year.
As for "Infernal Affairs", it is really just random killing!
Best supporting actor, best screenwriter, best director, and best film of the year are all included in the bag.
Luo Mo and Hua Jiaqun were both nominated for Best Actor!
Two male leads in one movie were nominated for Best Actor together!
In the end, it was Luo Mo who won the title of Best Actor this year, winning the award with his god-level performance as Chen Yongren!
This is what everyone expected, and it can be said to be an undisputed sweep!
And when the Golden Tripod Award Ceremony ended, everyone inevitably took out the new Blossom Award Ceremony held a month ago and whipped it up.
"I didn't go to participate in "Infernal Affairs", it's a bit worthless hahahaha."
"The Flower Award is getting worse and worse."
"Luo Mo doesn't care about the title of Best Actor of Fanhua."
"It's a bit of a pity that he won't be able to win a Grand Slam like this. Otherwise... the Flower Award will be removed from the major awards!"
"Haha, as long as everyone boycotts the Flower Awards and lets him know the news, Luo Mo will have a chance to win a grand slam!"
Flower Award: Are you polite?
Damn it, this is the first time I heard that there is a Grand Slam method!
And to be honest, we already want to bow to Luo Mo.
If he comes to participate this year, we will definitely make him emperor!
In the entertainment industry, there is always this kind of scene of shaking hands and making peace, and it has often become a good talk and a good story.
But Luo Mo had no such plan at all.
"What kind of bullshit award are you talking about, and you want me to condescend to get it?"
All this worsened the relationship between Luo Mo and Fanhua Award.
However, the judges of the Fanhua Award didn't know how to spray Luo Mo at the moment.
Their movies are awesome in the country.
In China, it needs box office and box office, and it needs word of mouth and reputation.
Among domestic actors of this age group, his acting skills are second to none.
Hey, wait!
domestic?
Yes, it’s only domestic!
Many judges began to sort out new words and began to tell the media: "Both Luo Mo himself and his movies have a big limitation, that is... he can't get out!"
His movies have become kings and hegemons in China.
Outside of China, he can’t do it!
What, you said that the copyright of "Infernal Affairs" was sold and it was purchased and adapted?
Save it, let’s talk about it after the movie is released, everything else is just talk for now, maybe it will be sold out!
Luo Mo knows how to play with feelings.
You see, the new movie "Farewell My Concubine" is once again engaging in that kind of cultural inheritance feeling and starting to play with Peking Opera.
Who doesn’t know that Peking Opera is awesome?
But do you have the ability to export culture?
Do you have the ability to take this movie to the world?
In the past, Peking Opera masters would perform overseas, and the seats would always be packed.
Among the people who come to see the show, there are people of all noble status.
So if you make a movie related to opera now, can it make the movie famous all over the world? Can it reach such a grand stage?
Not realistic at all!
The judges of the Blossom Awards caught this and made nonsense of it in front of various media.
Many netizens sneered: "It sounds like you can turn your broken prize into a world-class one."
"Why don't you old immortals go out of the country?"
"The Garbage Flower Award is almost dying in this three-acre area in China. Why are you still beeping here?"
As for Luo Mo, there has never been any response.
He was too lazy to deal with these clowns.
At the same time, he is waiting for a result.
And today, he was waiting for a result.
"Farewell My Concubine" won the highest award at the French Film Festival, winning the Palme d'Or!
Suddenly, the whole country was in shock!
...
Chapter completed!
